Would This Picture Entice You?

To buy a book?
How powerful an image is. What does this picture say? What would the title be? What genre ?( need I ask ) I doubt you'd find this book in the sewing section for instance: The Art of Fine Kilt Making. No.
Would you hide this cover deep in your stack of other books?
Just curious.
Cover art is as fascinating as what's written on the pages in between. Generally, I like a book that says something about what's inside--so I have an added perspective BEFORE I spend money and buy the book. This image, like so many that are blatant ( and, yes, I remember posting possible book cover images here and thanks, Newport2Newport for telling me one was just to, well, blatant )on bookshelves now and not just in the Romance section.
So, would you buy a book with Mr. Kilt on it? Even if the title was A MAN IN A KILT ( yes there is a book with that title, tho this is not the cover image ) Or some other title?
Or does this image speak a language you don't hear, are trying not to listen to or just plain don't understand?

BUT for me (and I'm just one pair of eyes), Mr. Kilt's a little too raw. Almost like seeing a plumber's crack, no? Yes, he's much sexier than that, but probably too much so for some sections of the book store. Hmm...maybe it depends on the book's contents and the intended audience? Personally, I like a fingernail moon, no more. That said, it's a beautiful moon. heh

That image is enticing, but it hints at book that's more erotic than romantic. The kilt thing has always turned me off, but he has an amazing body...
